Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
This looks swamp capable.

(05/09/2014) No title and does not run. Has rust.
I have a 1951 Willys Jeep CJ3A. It’s a nice original old Jeep, no 350 engine in there. The old Super Sonic flathead is still in there though its seen better days. The body is rusty but if you like patina it’s ready to go. If shiny paint is your thing it would probably be more cost effective to replace the tub. The frame and running gear look good though. The ol CJ rolls, steers and all 4 tires hold air. That’s the extent of its mobility. It hasn’t run since the ’80s. There’s no title. I bought it not too long ago on an impulse and now I’m thinkin “what was I thinkin!?” I would consider a trade for a nice vintage truck – 60’s or older“
